and if you force democrats to take a side on a civil rights issue, eventually, they're going to side on the side of freedom. so, you know, it took, you know, eight -- it took four or five years until the democratic party in general, you know, it was not acceptable to be against marriage equality. once democrats got on board, you know, it allowed -- you know, it allowed a lot of other folks to get behind it. and so i think that if karl rove hadn't made such a big stink about it in 2004, we might not have seen, ironically, the progress that we have over the last several years. >> jonathan, let's keep talking about karl rove for a second. i'll quote the president who's quoting other people, but the arc of history is long, but i believe ben stewart is justice. karl rove almost seemed to be bending in that direction for a second this week and then backtracked. i mean, what is the deal there? he was almost going to say, it is unacceptable for a republican on the national stage to be against marriage equality. and then summarily backed down from that issue. how much does that hurt the party

>>> tomorrow, the supreme court will begin hearing arguments in two of the biggest civil rights cases to reach its docket in years, if not in decades. up for consideration, doma, the so-called defense of marriage act, and california's proposition 8. as the court prepares for an historic moment, more public figures are weighing in. we can now add senator claire mccaskill of missouri and senator mark warner of virginia to the growing number of current and former lawmakers throwing their support behind marriage equality. senator mccaskill wrote, "i have come to the conclusion that our government should not limit the right to marry based on who you love. while churches should never be required to conduct marriages outside of their religious beliefs, neither should the government tell people who they have a right to marry." senator mark warner announced his support for marriage equality in a facebook post. "i support marriage equality because it is the fair and right thing to do." one of the two lawyers arguing against california's prop 8, david boies has predicted victory. >> i think we'r
